ProfiShark and long-term capture is an example of why Vendors attend Sharkfest!

SharkFest Europe conference was a success! This year, the Wireshark conference took place in Estoril, Portugal and it didn’t disappoint, as expected. For the Profitap team, the event meant lots and lots of inspiration and interesting insights about packet analysis, network troubleshooting and network forensics.

As a Vendor they attend to learn about trends and issues from the high quality of attendees at Sharkfest.

Why Venders at Sharkfest? – Jasper Bongertz a Wireshark Guru, Teacher and Decveloper sums it up - Having vendors showcasing their hardware and software solutions to the Sharkfest attendees is a big plus. There are always new cool things to discover and it's a great way to exchange information and experiences between solution providers and the users of their products. The audience at Sharkfest is extremely focused on all things network analysis, security, monitoring and troubleshooting, so there is no better targeting for the vendors than being present at this selective industry conference. Sharkfest is ALL ABOUT sharing and exchanging ideas!

Venders build technology to visualize and solve complex network issues no better place to show their solutions as well as gain more insight into the issues faced by real world analysts, security experts and overall Network Engineers!

Example - ProfiTAP provides network monitoring tools, from high-density network TAPs and Packet Brokers to field service network troubleshooter. That’s why this conference was a must for us. Where else could we get better feedback from top network analysts than at a SharkFest event?

Profitap showcased its range of portable network troubleshooters – ProfiShark. In addition, we also presented a long-term traffic capture solution, that combines the best of a ProfiShark and a NAS. This way the Wireshark community can catch an intermittent problem in the act, so they can still do their analysis on a laptop, wherever they are.

They also shared useful tips and tricks with network professionals for analyzing data with Wireshark, or our own NPM/APM software, ProfiSight.

Besides this, Venders like ProfiTAP attended live sessions presented by experienced network analysts and had the privilege to witness their way of going through packets to evaluate and identify, mitigate and secure their network.

Finally, we want to say a huge thank you to the SharkFest team. They did a great job organizing this conference, so that we can enjoy a stunning geeky event.
